Talkin' that s*** behind my back, dirty mackin' Tellin' your boys that I'm on crack I just don't give a f***! So put my tape back on the rack Go run and tell your friends my s*** is wack I just don't give a f***! But see me on the street and duck Cause you fittin' to get stuck, stoned, and snuffed Cause I just don't give a f***! Hey, f*** that! Outsiders Pace one Young Zee
